USA, 1981-1982
I wish I had been in the meeting when this baby was being discussed. It's almost... erotic.

Clone Wars-Themed Fun Casting Combo
USA, 2009Surprisingly out there for a brand-new product tie-in, I suppose there is a link between lightsaber handling and fly casting. Just don't confuse a bass and a bantha.

Lightsaber Air-Sickness Bags
USA, 2005
Yeah, these really cool diagrams, showing the parts and etiquette of our favorite space sword, were printed on barf bags. If you were lucky enough to find one of these in the seat pocket in front of you, I hope you have it framed.

Princess Leia Underoos
USA, 1981
I loved Underoos as much as the next functioning 6-year-old of that age—crazy how they got us so excited about underwear. But this choice—Leia's Hoth garb—seems like a stretch. Guess they couldn't wait till the 1983 version, Tatooini bikini Leia.

Star Wars Happy Hippo Figurines
Germany, 2002
These came inside chocolate eggs over in Europe, and they certainly are endearing and collectible. But that whole blue-hippo-masquerading-as-green-alien thing—it really throws off my suspension of disbelief.

Yoda Cap
USA, 1980-1981
It looks like a fan thing, but nope, this baby is (or at least was) official. I am trying to figure out if I remember it, or if I just love it so much I'm implanting it as a memory.

Jar Jar Binks Monster Mouth Candy Tongue
USA, 1999
Illegal in Texas.

Star Wars Marin Unit T-Shirt
USA, 1979
This one was never in wide distribution, for sale or as a promotional item. It was, however, the official crew t-shirt of the team based in Marin County during the shooting of Empire Strikes Back. I included it because that shot of Darth Vader could never have a more appropriate home than here on Gizmodo. We raise our glasses right back at you, Lord V.
